It's a bit like getting people to agree not to feed their children for a greater cause that may not be totally apparent to them at the time. It is simply not going to happen.
ADM, That's not a good comparison because unlike feeding children, pilots have a choice, but I see what you are trying to get at.
It is not just potential and current employees who are to blame, it is also most definitely the exploitation of human whore tendencies by employers.
It's really too bad that individual pilots, in Europe and Asia especially, aren't held accountable for their actions of getting into the cockpit as much as they are for their actions inside the cockpit (as it has been in Canada) but the same can be said for companies being held accountable for their recruiting practices as much as they are for their maintenance.
